Diamanda Galás
Diamanda Galás is a Greek-American singer, pianist, composer and performance artist, hailed as one of the most extraordinary voices of our time, with a range of over three and a half octaves used as an instrument of shock and mourning. Trained as a pianist and steeped in Greek rebetiko and the blues, she emerged in the early 1980s with works of extreme vocal technique and political charge.
